Discovering the best glamping in Calabria

Have you ever heard of "glamping"? The word comes from the union of "glamour" + "camping" and refers to a more comfortable and "fashionable" way of experiencing camping, immersed in nature but without giving up comfort.

Among the latest frontiers of green tourism, glamping in Calabria is the perfect solution for those seeking an experience in nature with breathtaking views, whether by the sea or in the mountains, far from chaos, surrounded only by luxury and well-being.

All you have to do is find the one that is right for you, depending on the season of the year you wish to stay, your budget and your preferences.

Who said that camping necessarily requires a spirit of adventure and sacrifice?

Glamping belies these requirements and makes camping comfortable and relaxing for everyone, young and old.

Originating in the United Kingdom as an alternative to traditional camping, glamping offers guests an open-air experience with every comfort: luxury tents with clean linens and furnishings, renewable energy sources and eco-friendly services that seek to reduce the impact of tourism on the environment, and many other attention to detail.

Can glamping be practised in Calabria? Absolutely, and it is a growing trend!

With its variety of natural landscapes, including 3 national parks, 16 national and 3 regional nature reserves, as well as 6 regional marine parks and the "Capo Rizzuto" Protected Marine Area, the region offers a wide variety of scenery that makes glamping in Calabria possible from beaches to mountain peaks.

Not only that! The glamping experience in Calabria can be complemented by many outdoor sports activities: from simple trekking to cycling excursions, for example along the Parks Cycle Route; from lake tours to horse riding.

Among the glamping sites in Calabria in the mountains, there is one in the Pollino National Park.

This is the glamping inside the "River Tribe" village, in the Laino Borgo area, in the province of Cosenza.

Here you will find tents with an intimate and comfortable atmosphere, where you can rest in comfort on a memory mattress and enjoy clean linen and a personal kettle. Breakfast is served in the morning. 

Booking a glamping in Calabria on the Pollino is also the right choice if you want to try your hand at rafting and canoeing on the Lao river, a short distance from the glamping area.

Among the Calabria glamping sites by the sea there is one along the romantic Riviera dei Tramonti. It is located in Falerna, in Campodorato, in the province of Catanzaro, and is called "Golden Camp".

Have you always dreamed of sleeping in a tree house? You can do it here! In addition to the luxurious ground tents, equipped with every comfort, you can choose to have an intimate and romantic experience in the treehouse.

The glamping in Falerna is very close to the sea and the resort of Gizzeria Lido, renowned for the World Kitesurfing Championships held every year in July.
